Andie, I'd swap sea salt for kosher just to get the additional trace elements into my system, but GranMamas method is otherwise the only one I know, too. If you do the same with turkey, minus the vinegar and pickling spices, for 48 hours before smoking or charcoal roasting, it is the moistest boid evah. But you need a pot big enuff and a cold place to put it. Gareth you might chile dust the solution to a more "kicked up" level than usual
